Stepping Into the Fire is the cinematic release that reaches into the ash of the bare bones of existence and asks the question “is humanity born to die, or is humanity born to live?” The film follows the true story of three successful individuals brought together by an ancestral medicine from South America that has become legendary for its miraculous and profound effects. Ayahuasca — as the Amazonian brew is known — is well known for its mental, physical and energetic healing properties. Stepping Into the Fire closely examines the life-changing effects Ayahuasca can have and illustrates why environment and health are so crucial to human success on a global scale.

Stepping Into the Fire features Roberto Velez, Donna Walsh, Bo and José Pineda Varges (a.k.a Maestro Mancoluto). The story begins with Roberto Velez — a high-level New York Stock Exchange trader — raised since adolescence…

I’m sitting in Starbucks having been asked to stay away from my flat for 24 hours due to building and painting going on.

I have a big gearbag with all our valuables in it, which I need to bring to my boyfriends mums house before I meet him at 6.30.

This is annoying.. I feel like I’m just aimlessly waiting on everything and it’s all out of my control! Can I just reiterate how impatient I am and I can’t stand waiting.

It’s so sunny and I’m enjoying my Frappuchino but it’s kinda boring. My boyfriends sister asked me to go to the park with her and her son so I will go meet them shortly, but I have to organise to drop this bag off first. It’s such a pain not having a car!!!! Paying loads is different fares to go different places by public transport is so longgggg 😦

Hopefully by tomorrow my landlord should be done and I might get some normality back at my flat. It’s like I can’t relax at all and I literally hate that feeling of uncertainty and insecurity.

This just makes me smile. I can identify with these feelings. It’s like having a best friend and boyfriend rolled into one. He’s the first person I go to when anything happens at all, big or small. And i know its the same for him which makes me feel so special 🙂

I never think about you not being there, but whenever I get a pang of thankfulness of you being next to me, that feeling is so strong that it hurts to think that your absence is possible, though I know it will never be by neither of our choices.

This is so interesting.. I have heard folklore about different color hair and eyes meaning you have different qualities and abilities but I didn’t know it has been scientifically researched!

I have blue eyes so hopefully my pain threshold is high! That’s kind of comforting when I imagined the pain of childbirth ahead! Eek!!

Why do most people go to their doctors? One word: pain. It is the most common motivation behind any long wait in a health care provider’s office and accounts for more than 70 million physician office visits annually. Pain, then, is a top concern for many researchers, some of whom may be more apt to explore the differences in perceptions of pain rather than investigate causes ofpain.

For instance, Dr. Inna Belfer, a geneticist at the University of Pittsburgh, discovered that women with blue or green eyes handle hurt better than those with brown or hazel eyes. “Human pain is correlated with multiple factors like gender, age, and hair color,” Belfer said in a symposium at the American Pain Society‘s annual meeting.

“Researchers have found that red hair is associated with resistance to anesthetics and also to increased anxiety and darker eye color has been reportedly found to correlate with increased physiologic…
